have not been able to go on the scales on account of damaging my hip trying to climb into an old Seat Alhambra - the oversized person's arch-enemy! Things have been going from bad to worse. Car battery died but as it is a hybrid car, needs to be ordered from Japan. Car towed away. I spent 3 hours sat in my driveway waiting for resolution. part of this was on my wheelchair as it was too hot in my car. wheelchair is murder on pelvis. Had to cancel dentist. Insurance wanted to rent me a car but after discussing it with Europcar, no car appropriate to my accessibility needs. Insurance agreed on taxis. OK but no matter of explaining my situation and needs could get the right taxi booked. Struggled for a good 15 minutes to fit in Seat because he wouldn't allow me to sit in the front. Bum in, push/pull, legs too swollen to swing in... Severe hypoxia, thought I would get a stroke. Went to dentist. Zero treatment. Taxi back allowed me to sit in front but it was Mercedes so very low. More contortions and to get out I had to support all my weight on one leg and hop to give enough space for other leg to join. OMG! Result: torn ligaments, excruciating pain, inability to lift leg to walk. Painkillers every 4 hours or dental pain and hip pain unbearable. Not enough torture apparently because next I know I feel wetness on carpet. Maybe spillled water as moving glass? Go toilet, struggle back, daughter screams in horror. I had bled blood and lymph in bathroom and all along path to armchair. She took a picture, skin very rough, full of fluid filled blisters. Used alcohol to gently clean area and liquid plaster. Rang GP for help, got antibiotics after texting picture. promised me district nurse to come treat wound but nobody showed. Followed it up today and was told they will come whenever they come :( At night ants crawling on me thinking my lymph is a tasty snack. Carer did not come today. I am abandoned, in pain, short of breath, struggling with 28oC indoor temperature despite fan, and my future looks bleak.

Thank you Gilly. I managed to find some high strength Naproxen which is better than paracetamol. Carer didn't come again. I am so desperate for a wash! Have been forcing myself to take long rests in bed to ease swelling and thus pressure on the injured joint. Wish I had 4 hands: 2 to hold my stocks and two to hold my belly out of my way. Lol. Good thing is that my woes have pushed my friend to restart her diet because now she realises what a dangerous game she is playing with her weight.

I can see you had a tough day and it can't be easy, I do feel for you. Have been following your posts for a while, you need to start taking responsibility for your weight instead of finding excuses and blaming the world. Eating pie and takeaways, making pavlova and avoiding the scales and then complaining here will not help your lymphedema, only weight loss can do that. It's all about determination and the will to do it.

Yes, the takeaways are really bad. But a pavlova is really low cal with a bit of whipped cream and lots of fruit. The meringue itself doesn't have many calories. As for the pies, they are handmade and miniature. They are made with healthy ingredients (eg no palm fat or hydrogenated fats). I do not regret making them. It made me feel accomplished; moreover, cooking jogs my memory. The issue is not the weight but the damaged joint. This is why i couldn't climb on the scales. I know I have lost weight despite the swelling because I see how slim my wrists have become and how I can see through my hand. Also I can feel my neck and jawline. I am sorry if reading my troubles makes you feel I am finding excuses.

Yes but the pies are small, the pavlova is low calorie. Excuses. There are so many hidden calories in there, the sugar alone will make your condition flare up. I'm not telling you not to cook, but cook healthy instead of eating a takeaway and inventing a reason why you should have a cake.

Smoothtoffee, before you throw bricks to a person's home make sure yours is not built of glass... From what I have seen, you have been pigging out and putting on weight instead of losing it. Not everyone is like you... so keep your unkind criticism to yourself. I am sure there is a mirror somewhere in your home?

I wholeheartedly agree with Astronomyphilly. Me 'pigging out' was 2000kcal, having been on a 1200 kcal diet for a month and cycling 14 miles almost every day. And at least I can see my whole body in a regular mirror. Stop being a drama queen.

This is what irritates me as well. A pie is a pie, we are all here because we like pie and chocolate and whipped cream. This place is very supportive when you put in the effort, it's not a life journal for complaining how the world is against you. Nobody held a knife to any of our throats and forced the pie down, now did they?! Time to face the facts.
